- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 มิ.ย. 2012
- Video courtesy of Taconic. In this, a brand-new player in his very first mission with ShackTac proves to be awesome at giving out map coordinates and following directions after the rest of his squad is killed and he's left passing in and out of consciousness on a hillside. Unfortunately, the person he assumes is a teammate who just arrived to rescue him turns out to be none other than yours truly.
Q: What server am I playing Arma games on, who are these people, and can you join?
A: It's the private server for my community, Shack Tactical. As of 2014 we've been around for eight years, and I wouldn't trade it for anything - we have a fantastic memberbase and it makes for amazing gameplay in Arma and elsewhere. You can read more about us here: www.shacktac.com
Q: What mods does ShackTac use in Arma?
A: I keep a list of them here: dslyecxi.com/shacktac_wp/shack...
Q: Does ShackTac play mostly coop or mostly PvP/adversarial in Arma?
A: We do a mix of about 70% adversarial and 30% coop - both offer unique experiences and are a blast to play.
Q: How long have you been playing the Arma series?
A: I've been here from the start, with my Operation Flashpoint experience beginning with the demo's release in 2001. I went into the US Marine Corps shortly after (no relation!) and in 2004 I started playing OFP in multiplayer. 2006 saw me found ShackTac, which started in OFP and then transitioned through Arma 1, Arma 2, and finally, Arma 3. I hope to continue this for a long time into the future, as well as share the ride with viewers like you, as corny as that sounds!
Q: What system am I filming all of my Arma and VBS footage on?

Still gold even today, i thank you and kilroy for making content all them years ago. They were honest to god the only videos I liked that my dad would watch with me.
Saw a battle bit remastered video today that reminded me of "welcome to shaktac, john"
11 years ago...So many years.
@@snickle1980 i cant believe i havnt seen this video before, i found it after it got mentioned in the comments of a battlebit video by smii7y - actually, your comment is what made me find this!
"Are you on my team?" "Welcome to shacktac" BAM!! XD
I love this shit. Went through it myself as a private, and dished out the same when I was a team leader. We'd send cherry privates to the PSG and tell them "Go ask the Platoon Sergent if he knows where to find a Prick E-7" and then listen to the fury from behind the door. It's a good way to see how a person handles stress.
This is so hillarious! Poor John, I hope he didnt quit because of this.
Okay - saw this in Jan of 2023... I've been watching Shacktac for about 6 months now in a VERY haphazard fashion (mostly Arma 3), and this is FUNNY to go back so far and see such a FUN goof on a FNG.
I love how he slowly turned around at the end, only to see Dyslexi looking down the sights of an Ak-47
This is Legend! I'm so glady that i crossed this channel about 5 years ago. And now i make milsim on Arma 2 for the rest of my life for sure.
This is so legendarily amazing that I feel so damn bad for the guy. He probably saw this as bullying and left shacktac in shame.
this is gold.
and the way he practically whispered welcome to shacktac
oh my sides.
"Are you on my team?"
So glad that this was the first session that I was proudly able to play! Great laughs all night!
New guy doesn't realize Dyslecxi is on enemy team, gives him all the other squad's coordinates.
Dyslecxi has been hiding, then asks John to turn around to see him, John has been disarmed and can't shoot Dyslecxi.
Dyslecxi then welcomes him to Shacktac with a spray of AK fire
this is gold Dslyecxi
This is an absolute masterpiece. It has totally made our day. Thanks from UTG :)
That is fantastic!! Well played Dslyecxi!
Epic Dslyecxi. Just brilliant. I've watched a lot of ShackTac over the past few weeks and stuff like this makes my day.
I've just watched this at work and I laughed so hard! :D These few seconds just made my day!
wow that was funny haha, poor guy :D i hope you guys kept him with shack, showed him the ropes :D
I like how he is providing with even further intelligence when asked the questions.... poor john...
One of the best Dslyecxi moments of all time
Quite possibly the best video on youtube.
Never seen such a thing ! great guys !
This is the most brilliant ArmA video I have ever seen xD
This just made my day.
And you fucking SALUTE HIM. This is gold, funny as hell, "Are you on my team?". "Turn around."
This has to be the funniest TH-cam video that I have seen in quite some time!!
"Welcome to shack tactical" Bang-bang-bang! Best introduction ever.
Oh, well, We're lucky to enjoy this and it was very funny Dslyecxi. Keep up the good work and love your ShackTac work!!!
This video is so damn fantastic.
ARPS guy here. My various gods the last 20 seconds of that were hysterical.
This may of convinced me to finally send in my application!
That was the GREATEST thing I had ever seen
This is the best thing I have ever seen, I laughed so hard and the end. Dslyecxi is the best!
What a warm welcome
Bravo ShackTac Bravo, nicely done.
This is the best video ever, Tell the guy who recorded this Thanks.
"My map is being a little weird right now."
Dear God Dslyecxi, you almost made me snort apple juice up my nose. This is brilliant!
brilliant, just brilliant...
That's the most epic intro ever!!!!!!! WELCOME TO SHACK TACTICAL......*BOOM!*
3 Weeks since i sent request i stil didn't get a email. Just gonna send another one. This is just so amazing...AMAZIING.... *Pinks tear away* So good....
O my hell! I have never laughed so hard while watching youtube! While I feel horrible for John...nicely done D nicely done!
"where did you say charlie was again?..." Instant favourite!
Oh my gosh! Yes!
That was amazing!
Oh god, I needed a good laugh today and this provided more than enough.
That ending was by far the best way it could have gone down. That was too funny.
Oh my god, I was dying of laughter at the end. I would assume that would probably be one of the most memorable ShackTac indoctrinations ever.
made my day
This is one of the funniest clips on TH-cam.
LEGEND!!!
I love how slowly he turns around after he asks if he's on his team XD
Your videos are brilliant, makeing me laugh everytime.... even during your serious ones. :3
poor john. I hope he returns
Made my day. That "Welcome to ShackTac" was briliant, what was John`s response to this move ?
fucking gold, this makes me want to play
Best video ever
just great
best video EVER
Oh my fucking god that was hilarious, why am I just now seeing this?
MOST HILARIOUS THING I HAVE SEEN IN AWHILE
I love the reaction at the end where everyone just loses it xD
I favorites this six times :D
"Welcome to ShackTac."
Amazing.
Good soldier.
Quick thinking there Dslyecxi.
I like the salute at the end - fell off the chair laughing.
this is amazing why am i only seeing it now lol!
I hope this will take a part in Shack Tac 2012 review video somehow :D
does he still play with you?
Well does he?
Still waiting for that answer
guess not LOL
near the end " are you on my team?' me choking and trying to breath from laughing to hard
That was the best thing ever! Poor John! XD
To be fair, John proved that he was paying attention while being trained in map-reading.
Oh my god you guys are the purest of evil... this was awesome.
You're a beast, Dslyecxi! That was great! :-D
brilliant
"welcome to ShackTac."
*brilliant*
Welcome to ShackTac
And because of Dumb Luck some of the greatest video footage of arma2 I've ever seen was captured. All hail Dumb Luck!
"Welcome to ShackTac" *BANG*
God, thank you, I had to watch it 20 times and I still couldn't hear what he was saying because of all the laughing (mine included)
It's the ACE injury system. You can drift in and out of consciousness when injured.
this is the funniest vid yet! cant wait for the dyslexi and beagle showdown!
I love it.
Absolutely hilarious XD... Makes me kind of nervous to put in an app for shacktac LOL
0:27 indeed youtube worthy, indeed
I wonder did he keep playing the game after that. Great interrogation.
"Welcome to Shacktactical."
That was gold
Gotta give John credit his first match and last one alive.
welcome to shacktac.......BOOM....*salute*
Thanks :D
*And now for the million dollar question of the day*
Enemy Intelligence - "...Are you on my team?..."
I'm crying x'D
ouch watching this hurt my stomach, haven't laughed so hard in a very long time.
Holy shit I'm crying.
Haha I crieddd when you said turn around...I wish my computer could run ARMA :(((
I've never laughed so hard at something on TH-cam. Classic
This may be the funniest thing i have seen in arma.
Thought* :)
And thanks.
This is frking hilarious!!
Was thinking of applying for Shacktac next year. But this video makes me afraid of doing so :3
